Mission:

• “To create a safe and clean environment through placemaking, trash pickup, and community engagement”

Goals:

• To develop opportunity for residents, schools, and organizations to come together with a united goal of beautifying their community
• To provide resources to improve the visibility and sanitation of PH alleys, streets, and parks
• To organize social events and cleanups throughout PH
• To facilitate events and engage residents in actively utilizing pathways and empty spaces throughout the neighborhood
• To build relationships with community groups and organizations throughout Pendleton Heights and the Historic Northeast in order to create engagement and build pride and a sense of ownership in our community

Plans:
